Rebel Collins (3/1), Dragon Khan (9/2), Destined To Shine (5/1), Comber Mill (5/1), Hit And Run (11/2), Hijran (8/1), Good Tradition (8/1), Newstart (12/1), Unsafe Conduct (14/1), Dartagnan Le Dun (20/1), Astaroland (20/1), Vertigo (25/1)

Comber Mill comes here in cracking form seeking a four-time and remains nothing but game, but the latest 7lb hike might halt him. Dragon Khan was behind him on New Year's Eve but has run well in two starts since and could be nearing a return to winning ways. Good Tradition was a ready winner of a Southwell jumpers bumper recently and will be a threat if transferring that form now the hurdles are in play, though runner-up Newstart could have plenty to say about that. REBEL COLLINS was second over C&D last month and has been building steadily with each start over timber, he can get off the mark now.
